Delaware INBRE Summer Scholars Program 2021

Please note, summer scholar selections are continuing as planned with the assumption that the INBRE summer scholars program will run during the Summer of 2021.  However, as the situation with the pandemic is now fluid, it is possible that we will need to significantly change the program scope, limit which scholars are able to participate based on the details of their research project/its suitability to remote work,  or even cancel the Summer program altogether as the start date approaches.
